CQUniversity supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure by working with people and organisations in local communities, across Australia, and around the world. Together, they develop new ideas, build strong partnerships, and improve infrastructure that helps create a fairer, more sustainable, and better-prepared future for everyone.
Sustainable Development Goal 9. Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

Innovation and Start-Ups

CQUniversity helps people turn their ideas into real businesses. We do this by providing:

  • support and mentoring
  • training
  • business advice

These new businesses can create jobs and help local communities grow, especially in regional and remote areas where there may be fewer work opportunities. By helping people start and run their own businesses, CQUniversity supports them to become more independent, earn an income, and build a better future. This helps reduce poverty and creates stronger, more sustainable communities.
